message 1: by Sherri (new)

Sherri Hayes | 27 comments A reviewer noted in their review of my book Truth, that the there is a misspelling in the description of the book here on Goodreads. A fan of my series initially added the book to the site, so Goodreads will now not allow me to edit the description of my own book. Can that please be fixed? An author should be able to edit something like that.

As for the edit that needs done...

The third instalment of the Finding Anna series.

It should be 'installment' with 2 L's.
And Series needs to be capitalized.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Authors can edit descriptions of books on their profile, regardless of who added it to Goodreads.

Not sure why it wouldn't let me then. I went into edit the book details to change it. All it would show me was who the Goodreads user was that added it.

That sounds like the changelog?
